Abstract

An infrastructure for application service provision compiles a web top for a user to use in launching applications. The links in the web top are calculated to point to servers that have the best performance criteria for each permitted application and server available to the user. The link calculation may be made based on CPU usage, memory usage, the last server that the user was attached to and any performance criteria.
